Awe · Agency · Intimacy · Identity — four questions AI is forcing us to answer again. Paul Taylor is writing a book on what it means to stay human, coming 2028 from InterVarsity Press.
Feeling small before something vast and beyond our control restores what modern life strips away.
There is a self within each of us — one we receive as a gift and shape over a lifetime.
None of us is complete alone; we are made whole by knowing others and being known by them.
We were made to act on the world, and our actions carry real weight — the results, good or bad, are ours.
